Default Dextromethorphan redux
I would like to know how everyone is doing with it. I know Steve is doing well and wondered about the others.

Ran across a clue to its action or, at least, more data. It is an NMDA antagonist, which means that it blocks the receptors that are involved in the role of glutamate which can be harmful.

I got to wondering what other NMDA antagonists were around and found that magnesium was one.
